Game theory provides unique mathematical tools to analyse strategic interactions. A ‘game’ is a generalised term referring to a mathematical model involving players who follow a structured set of rules. Classical games can be shifted to their quantum versions via a quantisation protocol. These protocols involve the employment of entangled or complex super-positioned states. Quantum game theory offers potentially beneficial properties to games that cannot be realised in their classical counterparts. This draws interest in turning classical games into quantum games and investigating whether favourable behaviours arise. We focus on the classical game known as strategic information transmission (1). Quantum strategic information transmission offers possible benefits that can potentially be implemented via current quantum key distribution protocols, improving the security and effectiveness of information transmission.
